Carbon Poker Promotions

2015 update – Carbon remains open but no longer accepts affiliate signups, so we can no longer offer support or exclusive promotions. For a rakeback-friendly room, we recommend Americas Cardroom.

Promotions at Carbon Poker come in many forms – all providing a boost to your profits – beginning with the initial deposit bonus when you first create a Carbon account.

From your first hand you become eligible for the promotions listed below. Some require you to opt in within the client.

Happy Hours

Opt in to the Happy Hour promotion to earn 1.5x VIP Points (so 50% extra VIP rakeback) on every hand you play at designated hours.

Happy hours run from 10:00 – 15:00 on the Carbon client clock Monday to Friday each week. Bonus VIP Points earned are credited the next day.

Bankroll Builder

Opt in to the Bankroll Builder promotion to win cash prizes for hitting daily VIP Point targets throughout the month.

Bankroll Builder Prizes & Daily VIP Targets

Example – earn 5,000 VIP points ($500 in rake paid) per day on any 25 days within the space of a month and you’ll receive $2,000 free (an additional 1.6% rakeback). Players can earn one prize per month.

Two-A-Days

Opt in to the The Two-A-Day promotion and simply earning two VIP per day, every day for a month.

Do this and you’ll be entered into a $1,000 freeroll on the second Saturday of the next month, at 15:00 CST under Tournaments -> Special.

Rake Races

Carbon and the Merge Network give away up to $25,000 per month in leaderboard based rake races, as an incentive to play. Cash prizes earned in each race can add anywhere from 3 – 35% additional rakeback on top of your normal VIP rewards, with no deductions.

Check our rake races feed for the latest races happening this month, and our rake race analysis for last month’s results, payouts and extra rakeback achieved by the winners.

Sit & Go Leaderboards

Carbon offers two leaderboards each month for SNG players, paying out a total of $20,000 in cash prizes.

Play 1 SNG and earn 1 point, it’s that simple – and start competing for your position on any or all of the micro, low, and mid leaderboards.

How Much Cash Back Will I Earn?

Rakeback increases your winnings from online poker as you continually earn money back from every raked hand or tournament you play.

Many players earn a living wage from rakeback alone. Use the calculator below to estimate the size of payments you’ll get over a given period of time. The calculator will compute your expected daily, weekly, and monthly cash back depending on the stakes and tables you input.
